  • Introduction to Democratic Socialism (Short) Readings
    Introduction to Democratic Socialism (Short) Readings Ever wonder what a realistically achievable, fair and egalitarian society would look like, or how we might go about moving society in that direction? What would it mean to have democracy not only at the polling place, but also at the work place? What would politics, the economy and society look like where no person’s voice was heard over anyone else’s simply because of money, power, sexism, or racism? Democratic Socialists of America (DSA) believe that offering a realistic vision of a better society is crucial right now. Both Republicans and Democrats remain caught under the spell of the unjust, antidemocratic and inhumane economic and political policies known as neoliberalism. We invite you to discuss, debate and learn from these key DSA documents (as individuals or in study groups). DSA does not have a “line” or a dogmatic approach to political questions, but our members share the belief that only by democratizing control over economic and social life can we defend and expand political and civil rights. Key readings in democratic socialist theory and practice are listed below.

  • Reception of Counterculture in Eastern Europe
    International Relations RECEPTION OF COUNTERCULTURE IN EASTERN EUROPE Sebastian MARIȘ1 ABSTRACT THE PAPER SUGGESTS THE ABSENCE OF COUNTERCULTURE POLAND AND CZECHOSLOVAKIA. COUNTERCULTURE IS A CONCEPT THAT DESIGNATES THE NEW AXIOLOGICAL ORIENTATIONS OF YOUNG PEOPLE DURING THE 1960S, INCLUDING THE PROTEST IN GENERAL, THE FIRST ROCK MANIFESTATIONS, THE WIDESPREAD USE OF HALLUCINOGENIC SUBSTANCES, TELEVISION VIEWING, INSTINCTUAL RELEASE AND THE SEXUAL REVOLUTION. COUNTERCULTURE AROSE AND WAS THEORIZED FOR THE FIRST TIME IN THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, AND THEN EXPANDED INTO THE WORLD. AT THE SAME TIME, THE DIFFERENT DEFINITIONS FOR AN UNDERSTANDING WILL BE REPORTED, WHICH ARE THE BOUNDARIES OF THE CONCEPT. DEFINED AS A CONCEPT IN PARTICULAR BY INTELLECTUALS IN THE WEST, IT HAS MANIFESTED ITSELF DIFFERENTLY EVERYWHERE. OUR ANALYSIS WILL STUDY THREE HISTORICAL SPACES - THE US, POLAND AND CZECHOSLOVAKIA IN COMPARATIVE APPROACH IN ORDER TO OBSERVE THE MANIFESTATION OF COUNTERCULTURE AND PROTESTS THAT HAVE TAKEN PLACE. KEYWORDS: COUNTERCULTURE, PROTEST, GENERATION, LIFESTYLE INTRODUCTION The 60's of the last century offers a far-reaching historical and political perspective when it comes to mass-oriented mass movements. It is the decade in which the baby boom generation came to maturity, and with it came a new conception of the world. Being the result of accumulations over time, a change in collective mentality, or technical advances, it brings with it a new lifestyle reflected in the values of the time. The world is witnessing the formation of a new culture, one that prompted the show of sexuality and an extravagant style of clothing. Some intellectuals assert that 1968 is similar to 1848, although unlike 1848 the year 1968 had a larger spread exceeding the borders of Europe.
